The Aleph Deck

"SPEAK IT…AND IT IS CREATED"

The Aleph Deck will even amaze professional magicians.

Because its secret method is not popularly used, you are one of a select few who have the opportunity to perform it.

And in addition to amazing your audience, this magic trick affords you an opportunity to learn and teach about the true origins of the most well-know magical phrase, Abracadabra.

We have shown this trick to many professional magicians, magic trick experts, and magic trick manufacturers. It has baffled everyone! Sometimes they wonder what kind of fancy sleight of hand moves you are using. But the fact is: it’s simple to perform. You don’t need any special sleight of hand skills. All you need is this deck of cards and knowledge of an ancient secret principle on which this truly magical magic trick is based.

A unique deck, with 52 cards and a joker (no double cards; just the 52 cards of a normal deck plus the joker) is shown to your participant. No hidden cards. No sleight of hand for you to learn.

Begin with an engaging discussion about the world’s most famous magical phrase abracadabra, in which you inform the participant about its ancient origin. Explain that the first letter of this word is also the first letter of the Hebrew alphabet, Aleph.

Ask the participant to think of a single card. No forcing; the selection is totally free. Any of the 52 cards can be selected.

You, the magician, then ask the participant to imagine the Hebrew letter Aleph being printed – right at that moment – on the one card they selected. You then search the deck and discover that the only card in the deck with an Aleph printed on it is indeed the participant’s card. Abracadabra!

When your volunteer thinks of a card, the letter Aleph ultimately appears on that card. Rather than perform this trick where youdo the magic, your volunteer can be the magician. The volunteer thinks of the card, imagines an aleph on that card, says the magic word abracadabra and then the magic happens.

Your performance can include an explanation of the oldest and most popular magical phrase in the world: Abracadabra. The Aleph Deck comes with an extra card clearly explaining the origin of the word, “Abracadabra.” You can use it as part of your presentation, or simply learn its actual ancient source for youself.

Be Here Now

“A LIFE CHANGING MESSAGE IN A SIMPLE BUT IMPOSSIBLE CUT IN PAPER.”

Each of us is unique. I am not supposed to be you. You are not supposed to be me. We each must find out who we are as individuals. I don’t want to follow the crowd. I don’t want to mimic others. I want to know my own unique self. Each of us is unique.

Take any pair of scissors and then show your volunteer a rectangular strip of paper. The strip is about an inch wide and several inches long. Ask your volunteer to select exactly where the strip of paper is to be cut into two pieces.

Your volunteer can freely choose the exact place where the paper shall be cut. You don’t force anything. At the last moment your volunteer can even have a change of mind and can select a different point. The volunteer’s decision is totally free.

The strip of paper is cut at precisely the point your volunteer selects. The two pieces are then turned over to reveal a prediction printed on the other side of the strip of paper indicating exactly where the volunteer asked the cut to be made!

The prediction is always perfect and precise, and is always the one and only unique point freely selected by your volunteer.

All Is Foreseen

“DO WE REALLY HAVE FREE WILL?"

Life offers so many choices. Many researchers have wondered just how many choices we make a day. They all agree it’s in the thousands. And sometimes, only one seemingly insignificant choice can have a huge impact. But, do we really even have free choices? Could it be that everything happens by fate and is pre-destined? Then again, existence may not be free nor fated. Our lives might be made of an incalculably complex series of random events colliding with one another by chance.

At any point in a discussion, you will propose an experiment. You display three cards. Each of the three cards has one of these word printed on it:

CHOICE

FATE

CHANCE

Ask your volunteer to select any ONE of the three cards. The volunteer can select the card that says CHOICE. The volunteer can select the card that says FATE. The volunteer can select the card that says CHANCE. Your volunteer will experience it as a totally free. After all, it actually is a free choice. Your volunteer is not forced to make a specific selection. The volunteer’s selection is made, and then…

…you present a revelation.

With a facial expression of amazement and disbelief, your volunteer will say:

“That’s impossible!” or “How did you know that?” or “Does everyone pick the same word?”

But it doesn’t matter which of the three words you volunteer freely selects…

And it doesn’t matter how much your volunteer insists it was a free selection…

There are dozens of versions of this trick. But we love ours. Sometimes three colors are used. Or three shapes. But the trick is all about the question of choice vs. chance vs. fate. So those are the three possible selections; CHOICE. CHANCE. FATE. The thought provoking content of the trick really pierces to the heart of any version of the trick.

While your performance of this trick can simply be quick and fun, it also has the potential to stimulate a deep and profound conversation. Do you believe in fate? Do people have free will? Are we all programmed? Is the universe random?

Each volunteer can select any of the three words. The prediction is ALWAYS correct. Was the selection a free choice? Or was it fate? Or was in all by simple chance? Remember: the prediction is ALWAYS correct.

Timing & Dosage

"JUST LIKE MEDICINE AND POISON–APPROPRIATE HUMAN BEHAVIOR DEPENDS ON TIMING AND DOSAGE"

A human emotion or character trait cannot be judged as good or bad.

Take honesty for example.

Honesty is not always good.

When you visit Grandma in the hospital you wouldn't way, "Grandma, you look worse than you did yesterday."

Also, ask your volunteer not to reveal the person’s name—not even after the trick is performed.

From a list of 100 different human character traits, (e.g. honesty, energetic, humility) your volunteer, silently and freely, selects and thinks of just one word out of 100 to describe the person being thought of.

Your volunteer does not say anything.

You are not told who the person is nor the word chosen to describe the person.

Your volunteer silently thinks about the person and concentrates on the word.

Your volunteer may never tell you who is being thought of…

…but, you are able to tell your volunteer which one word is in their mind!
